voltage regulator

[Johnemory@xxxxxxx]

Hi all: 

 

Thanks to all who responded to my question about wide whites for my '56.  You gave me lots of leads to follow.

 

Now, yet another question.  Last Friday after coming home from work (I took Blacat that day), I parked it in the garage as usual.  Later, I went into the garage to take the car to get gas, and noticed a strong ozone, burning electricity smell, and lo-and-behold, the battery was dead.  Turned out the voltage regulator stuck.  After a few whacks, it was OK, but not before the battery was fried.  The parts listing at this address: http://www.imperialclub.com/Part/Electrical/numbers.htm lists a regulator part number only up to '55.  Anybody have a NAPA part number for the '56?  Duel points.
